I never like making lists because when I am done and look over them they seem like such a mess, like a strange mix of unrelated things. And I don't like divulging too much information either (which I did), I fear I will become quickly boring after revealing so much information. It's not thē definitive list. It is probably the first 100 albums I can think of first, which 90% I obsessed over at one point or another. Besides studio albums it contains an EP, a various artist compilation, a box-set and a few greatest hits.

Hello friend.

Also, Wpnfire: I disagree with your favorite Springsteen albums. However, Springsteen fans seem to be something of a minority here, so that's cool anyway.
